From the bestselling author of The Confessions and co-owner of The Best Bookstore in Palm Springs, a retired TV writer of a hit British cozy detective show must solve an impossible murder in Little Burning—a quaint fictional 1950s English village that has been meticulously recreated by an elusive and volatile billionaire.

“Much like the bucolic town of Little Burning, this book is never what it seems. What starts out as a classic Agatha-Christie-style whodunit quickly reveals itself as something far more surprising, clever, hilarious...So good it’s outrageous.” —Andrea Bartz, New York Times bestselling author of We Were Never Here and The Last Ferry Out

When American clean-energy mogul Bunny Hutch is injured in a near-fatal car accident, he decides to convalesce by recreating the English village where his favorite murder mystery show was filmed.

And why not? Without the weekly murders, Little Burning is the safest place on earth: An idealized version of the 1950s, filled with knitting classes and village fetes, where everyone knows their neighbors and the harsh realities of modern life are kept safely at bay.

But after Hutch’s assistant dies in impossible circumstances, just days after moving in, the billionaire decides to hire the only man who could solve the case and restore balance to his idyllic community: Kennedy Mott, the down-on-his luck writer of the original show.

What starts as a simple murder investigation, led by Mott and his reluctant partner Police Constable Astrid Barker, soon leads to a deadly conspiracy that stretches far beyond the village and threatens to destroy them both, and everyone they love.

With the body count rising, and an ingenious killer seemingly scripting their every move, Mott and Barker must uncover the sinister truth about Little Burning and its inhabitants before the clock hits zero.
